Hyun-Jin Ryu

This is potentially unsettling news that Bill Shakin tweeted on Friday. #Dodgers P Hyun-jin Ryu shut down with inflammation in left shoulder. Had an injection, next step TBD in 3 days. — Bill Shaikin (@BillShaikin) March 20, 2015 And this from David Vassegh. Mattingly admitted that Ryu being ready for start of season is in…

This is the penultimate piece in my 2015 Dodgers prospects series. I look at how I think the 2018 pitching staff could shape up. There are a few Dodger pitching prospects who could crack the 2018 pitching staff, but if there is a big hole that can be filled with a big signing (specifically in…

Guys. Guys. Come on. Beachy, 28, was non-tendered by the Braves in December after missing the entirety of last season due to Tommy John surgery. He is likely to miss the beginning of this season as he continues his rehab process, but will provide rotation depth behind Clayton Kershaw, Zack Greinke, Hyun-jin Ryu, Brandon McCarthy…

Hyun Jin Ryu did another glorious commercial for Ottogi Noodle/Jin Ramen.

My favorite is the capture above, because you can see his smirk as he thinks to himself, “My god, this…

As you should know by now, my Twitter profile picture is of fake Clayton Kershaw, the one who took over for him in the seventh inning of his NLDS starts this year (sorry, I had to). As you should also know by now, that image comes from a glorious Hyun-Jin Ryu commercial out of Korea…

Here’s the good thing about last night’s loss to San Francisco: As ugly as it was, baseball doesn’t award style points. One loss is one loss. Here’s the bad thing: Everything else. Pretty much everything that came out about Hyun-jin Ryu‘s shoulder sounds awful. Ryu described it as "a little stiffness, a little pain" in…

As Hyun-jin Ryu returns from a strained gluteus muscle, he will be an integral part of the Dodgers’ success in 2014. He pitched extremely well on Sunday, so everything looks positive so far. Ryu remains one of the most unheralded good starters in the game. His FIP- this year is 75, the 12th best in…
